Attitudinal objects and referential interpretation for performative utterances
Manuscrito. 2025. Vol. 48. No. 1. Article 6.
Abstract: The present paper explores resources provided by
ontology of satisfiable objects (an ontologico-semantic framework
proposed by F. Moltmann) for development of a referential
analysis of performative utterances. In order to position ontology
of satisfiable (including attitudinal and modal) objects among other
ontological options for theories of meaning, I compare it to
ontology of propositions and ontology of acts and events. Then I
address the notion of performative utterances and its ontological
background in Austin, as well as assertion-oriented accounts of
performative utterances, contending with the initial Austinian
account. I put forward the hypothesis that adoption of satisfiable
objects ontology is a way to an integrative vision of truth and
felicity of performative utterances. I discuss the logical form
ascribed to performative utterances by Moltmann and then outline
my proposal for their analysis within the framework of ontology
of satisfiable objects.

The connection of the poetic form with the content is investigated. The free verse, developed by W. Whitman in the second half of the 19th century, took root in the USSR with difficulty. In modern Russian poetry, the free verse, while preserving the aura of Western poetic culture, often combines gender and political meanings, broadcasting ...

Unlike many other Turkic languages, Balkar normally demonstrates obligatory subject-verb
number agreement in finite clauses with 3rd person subjects: when a subject is plural-marked,
so is the verb. However, there are cases when the subject is not overtly plural-marked, but the
verb can be. We argue for an account where such facts are not reduced to any form ...

The determination of new words and meanings is a key issue in lexical history studies. However,
common reliance on identifying “the earliest examples” can be challenged by textual complexity and subjective
disagreements. Focusing on the emergence of the FAST meaning of kuai (快), this study proposes criteria for
identifying new meanings from the perspective of the lexical system. ...

The article examines Old Russian anthroponyms with the suffix -ec-, originally conveying the meaning ‘less than X’. A diachronic corpus study of
11th–17th-century texts reveals that while this suffix lacked inherent pejorative
connotations in Old Russian sources, contextual (adherent) pejoration is clearly
observable. For pre-15th-century chronicles, two primary usage patterns are
identified—1) characters with explicit negative evaluation, and 2) ...

This article proposes a rethinking of the role of artificial intelli-gence in contemporary science through an analysis of HarryCollins’s concept of expertise.
